As a News and Advertising Medium it has ne competitor. €7 Im order to count of perso: THE STAR should not be addressed to any fadtviduarl connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- menis, necording to tenor or purpose. Our Defenselens Coasin. One ef the principal congressional prob- abilities of the present week is the reporting of the fortifications bill. It fs understood that the total amount believed by the com- mittee to be necessary to satisfactorily for- tify the principal seacoz about $87,000,000. But only a small pe: age of the aggregate will be required now. For $1,500,000 work may be carried on until duly 1; during the next fisc be good vse for $, of the ten succeeding years $8,000,000 Is asked. In one lump $87,000,000 looks like a great deal of moncy, but when considera- tion ts given the vast amount of work which has to be done before the salient points of cur coasis can be regarded as reasonably defended the amount does not seem to be extravagant, and when further considera- tion is given the encrmoas values that ars row entirely without protection, the amount ked for by the committee is by comparison almost infinitesimal. When the recent war svare was at its height the country was compelled to recognize the helpless condition more prominent cities on and near line and many and sharp were the uttered by those who realized ive Congresses had done just as possibly could to amend a sable condition of affairs. A or so hence, when the mil- Ienium is in full working order, there will sity for coast defenses, and it may nessibly be that within a few years the vans of those tional arbitration will render impossible any strife between the United States and Great But it must be remembered that are many other nations given to pug- ity and some one or more of these may sieem it but duty to pull feathers out of the American eagle's tail. Against those unde- irsionists there should be ma- e and it should be borne in mind hy the American tax-payer that adequate tructions cannot be put in place within twenty-four hours. It is the desire of the rtitk-ations committees to hasten to com- nae ietion the plans which have been approved by the authorities, yet, as the bill under ssion indicates, the good work cannot be completed in less than about twelve years. \s things are at present taere is no civilized ration en carth more helpless than the tepullic of whose greatness ana wealth and power and wisdom its citizens never weary of ting. > ¢ = —____ Water Sapply and Sewers. Tomerrow evening the Board of Trade Will discuss a subject in which every resi- dent ¢f the District of Columbia and ever visitor to the national capital must have an abiding interest. The city’s sanitation is a troad topi-, and it will doubtless be ndied fittingly by men who are thor- ighly qualified to debite a matter of so much importance. To discuss sanitary mat- ters withcut mentioning the city’s water supply would not be easily possible, and it is expected that a large proportion of the ‘iterally-conservative suggestions to be made at the meeting in question will deal with Potomac and well water and their influevees on the public health. To the Board of Trade Washington fs already in- «lebted for the closing of many of the wells which were insidiously poisoning a great many people, and largely to the Board of ‘Trade Washington will some day have to return thanks for the adoption by the au- thorities of sedimentation or filtration plans such as will give to the people of this city pure water in sufficient quantity to satisfy all consumers. Between water supply and sewerage facilitles there Is intimate relationship, so the latter will also in all probability be discussed by thoroughly capable members of the organi- zation which is unselfishly doing its utmost to make the national capital the model city therefore the most desirable place of residence in the United States. —_—_ + e+ Mere of Spanish Injustice. Senor Dupuy DeLome, the Spanish min- ister to the United States, has been discuss- ing taxation In Cuba and s: “It is true that Cuba is heavily taxed. But this is the fault of the revolutionists, who have bur- tened the island with a debt she would not have had ne Trad been left in peace.” ‘then Senor DelLome proceeds to prove tha: “the tax-payers are on the side of Spain, and fighting, or assisting others to fight for the continuance of the Spanish regime.” ‘The rebels, great and small, are quite con- vious for their poverty and are therefore ot of any importance as contributors to the Spanish ireasury. If these two contentions Senor DeLome are correct then Spain is dealing most unjustly by the Cuban tax- payers for It compels them, who are loyal, to pay heavily fer the deeds of the non-tax- paying revolutienists with whom, indeed, they ate at war. This is a remarkable showing. Some people are so anxious to prove something that they occasionally Trove too much. Washington's atiractiveness is continual- ly bei nbanced. In all parts of the na- tal are displays that delight both sidents and vigitors. The latest feature of interest to be opened to the public is the postal siuseum; in which will be found much th instructive and otherwise de- sirable. addition to the Post Office Iepariment has been of slow growth, but throns ht the activity of a few faithful ones is it has at last assumed sufficiently great to fully entitle all possible consideration.

Whether yeral Booth or Commander Railington Booth has the righteous end of the argtment as to the differences which a@re convulsing the Salvation Army is a matter of concern to more persons than these who are members of that most re- maraable of evangelistic organizations. It new seems likely that out of the squabble will come a-truly American Salvation Army, cntirely independent of General Reoth and of those who are with him in the strife which Is attracting so much at- tention. This secession will. not be likely te work injury in any way, for the army on this side of the water is in such excel- lent shape as to make Its existence rea- sonably sure, provided, of course, that General Booth does not attempt to main- THR EVENING STAR, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1896-TWELVE PAGES. tain the British organization In communi- ties where the American army may oper- ate. It would be matter for sincere regret if the army’s usefulness should suffer by reason of this international disagreement, for no one can fairly estimate the tre- mendous amount of good that has been dcne by the humble but faithful labor- ers in the soul-saving vineyard; thousands of men and women who in the ordinary course of events wovld’ have remained wholly discreditable members of society have been rescued by th® Salvation Army and have themselves in turn become res- cuers of others. In the face of opposition that at times was vicious. the army has gene directly to lia task and by its fidel- ity has attracted to association with it- self a large number of influential Ameri- cans who have been provd to act in auxil- fary capacities and who have contributed liberally to the furtherance of the army's cause. These are the people who will be called upen to say whether there shall or shall not be an An:erican army in name as there has really been one in fact. It now 2ppears likely that Eallington Booth will be the G-crge Washington of the revolu- tionary mcvemegt. ———__+e-+ --—__ A Revolutionary Birthday. One year ago today we Cuban revolu- tien which still progresses was inaugurated at Santiago. At that time the Spanish au- thorities minimized the uprising as mue as they possibly could and predicied that within a week or so nothing more would Le heard of the few discontented ones who had rebelled agairst the authority of 1 mother country. Gradually, however, that opinion was amended until by the presence of more than a hundred thousand troops in the field the Spanish government was ccmpelied to admit that the Cuban revolt was a serious affair; and now ii is evi- dent to the world that Spain has nothing more than a mere fighting chance on the island of which it has so long been the sole and tyrannical proprietor. The strife for independence has been waged against tremendous edds. On the Spanish side have been all the advantages of military train- and well-tried discipline, and it is un- doubtedly true that whenever the oppos- ing forces have ccme inio direct and open cenflict with each other victory has most frequently been on the Spanish side. But careful balancing of account shows conclusively that the advantages in the leng run belong fairly to tae Cuban, whose valor has received priceless ail from a climate that in a startling pere cases proves fatal to the uni ated European. How much longer the struggle will continue no cne can reasonably guess, but that the war will come to an end be- fore Cuba is free is quite improba There have been other revolutions in C and they all failed, but it does not : seem likely that the Cuban spirit will content with anything less than comple and unqualified suce And millions Americans hope they wil! secure it. —__+ e+ __—_ Ninety men worked on the city post-offic today.

Taller than Mr. Hiscock, and with a head gravel after the ex-Senator's fashion, with a wealth of curling gray hair, he presents a sufficiently unusual appearance to the sightseer to provoke most of the curious to stop and ask: “Who is that?” Pretty nearly everybody can tell.

Not for many years has he spent so much time in the building as Le dées this year.

There were many who said W: ashington would never support such a Store, but the Store has been generously supported and quoted every- where. Washington has many good The policy of our business touches the whole community. stores. It has wrought itself into the ideal and actual life of the men, women and chil- dren of the entire vicinage. It was established with certain fixed princi- ples—they never varv. We started the p.sin, straightforward style of advertising. We insisted on having ready exactly what is advertised. We insisted on the return of goods and refund of money for any thing that failed to please. We brought prices to a minimum, because of skippii people in buying. ig intermediate The Store rises, the business broadens and deepens, the horizon ex- pands with each completed year, and today is in a better position to serve the people than in any of its sixteen years. Achievements of the past fall short of the requirements of the pres- ent. A loftier ideai—a duty to make the business better is confronting us. We accept the duty hopefully, believing that greater success “awaits us if we deserve it. According to our custom, we propose holding an Anniversary Sale. Each Department will contribute one or more items of seasonable goods, which will be sold at very specially low prices. We do not quote former prices or reduced prices, simply ask your inspection of values at the prices named. In every case, we believe, there are quantities great enough to last through the sale.
